Scotts Valley 4-H Club invites new members

The Scotts Valley 4-H Club is a great youth development organization offering opportunities beyond animal care. 4-H offers a gender- and age-integrated environment for youth to learn a variety of skills based on their interests and to learn about citizenship and community service, leadership and public speaking.
Club members invite young people to join them at 6:30 p.m. Monday, Sept. 13, to share spaghetti and cookies, meet members of the community who enjoy 4-H and to learn about the club. Those ages 5 through 18 are welcome.
Guests should take a dozen cookies to the Community Covenant Church, 2700 El Rancho Drive, in Scotts Valley.
Some of the projects that will be offered this year include archery, emergency preparedness, bread making, quilting, market swine, sewing, entrepreneurship, cheese making, honey bees, soap carving and western horsemanship.
For junior high and high school children, there are also many opportunities for community service and leadership skill-building.
The Scotts Valley 4-H Club meets at 6:30 p.m. the second Monday of each month at the Community Covenant Church.
